TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
When you make a mistake,
unfortunately, the critics and naysayers come out of the woodwork. People
will tell you, “You’re all washed up. It’s too late.” If you wear that label,
it will keep you from the amazing future God has in store. God says, “My mercy
is bigger than any mistake.” God says, “I can still get you to your destiny.”
God says, “I will give you beauty for those ashes. I’ll pay you back double
for the unfair things that have happened.” You wouldn’t be alive unless God
had another victory in your future. Why don’t you take off the “washed up”
label? Take off the “failure,” “guilty,” “condemned” labels and put on some
new labels: redeemed, restored, forgiven, bright future, new beginning.
Always remember, you have
been made in the image of Almighty God. God did not make any mistakes. You
are the perfect size. You have the right personality, the right gifts, the
right looks, the right skin color. You are not an accident. God designed you
precisely for the race that is laid out for you. You are fully equipped for
this life, and His mercy is greater than any mistake you could make. Embrace
the truth and the victory He has in store for your future!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY

Father, thank You
for Your mercy. Thank You for equipping me for everything I need in this
life. I choose to renounce old labels and forgive those who have hurt me. I
set my eyes on You, Jesus, the Author and Finisher of my faith in Jesus’
name. Amen.

When the going gets tough do we abandon our God – do we jump ship because we are “going through” The answer is NO , as Christians we must keep the faith – even when it does not look good or feel good – you have to know its working for the good – you must learn the lesson – the season of testing – your harvest season is over – it’s time for reaping your reward – you stood the good fight - they lied on you, they cheated on you, they ignored you, your finances fell so below it’s a wonder you are still standing- and yet through it all you kept harvesting and trusting – storing up on his word and planting good seeds. The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
